Where to registar a domain name?

hi pickshoe,
I think GoDaddy would be best. So far I don't suffer from any problem from them. Else you can also join some of the hosting companies which offers free domain name for life along with hosting.

try namecheap

I use GoDaddy too. Never had any problem with them. And you can easily find coupons on the net which help you to grab a .com for $7.49.

I like namecheap. Haven't been using them for long but their customer service is excellent and their prices aren't bad either.

use Namecheap or internetbs is excellent.

Godaddy is the best, but you can also try Namecheap.com (they offer free privacy protection) and Name.com. I use all three of them

GoDaddy is a service, which you should never use. I am talking about personal experiences and things that I have been told, yes, they offer a good service.. but, there are more negative things that outweigh the positives.

It's one of the most user-friendliest, but also most expensive. They sell every little service at additional cost and it's one of the worst sites to buy domains from, because; when you want to flip your site sometime (which always should be an option to have), GoDaddy makes it incredible complicated.

Domain registration is medium price, decent. But, you have to purchase additional packages (such as PrivateDomain/WhoisPrivacy, which you'll definately need and want + SSL for a big price at additional cost), this all adds up and makes it very expensive.

Go for Domaincheap (.com) for registering domains, it is one of the cheapest out there and has the best price/quality & what you get balance.

You get a thrillingly cheap price, free WhoIs Privacy (so other people can't see your address) and free SSL Certificate, which you will definately want to have (this makes a kind of "approval" on your site and helps you rank and gain better trust). Free URL forwarding (which can make your site into a landing page or forward visitors to a CPA or survey). Also, it makes flipping (selling) your domain easy as never before.

You also can use this promo code which makes registering a domain even cheaper!

U can try NETFIRMS... I used this for many of my websites and the service is extremely good. Besides, the names are cheap too!!

Good luck!

Hi pickoshe -

I have domain names at Go Daddy and NameCheap.com and name cheap is my recommendation and I've had domains at both for a few years. About 50 domains. And some more at some other places.

I been moving more over to NameCheap. They have been cheaper and the support has been great. The prices have been cheaper and they issue coupons too.

The big difference in price is for privacy. At GoDaddy it's like $9fpr privacy guard and it's handled on another site. Sure they have domain name sales but when it comes time to renew you seldom see a price break. Right now it's $10.69 for a .com and it's $8.99 for privacy. That's $19.68

At NameCheap it's $9.69 for a .com and $0.00 first year privacy and $2.88 after the first year. Big difference. Plus the whois guard (their privacy) is handled right in your account. Not a different site like GD.

Namecheap, been using it for 2 years. Havent had a single problem and has great prices with free whois guard and ssl certificate for 1 year.

Hi,

Netfirms.com are a great choice. They are in Canada so you get extra privacy. Plus WHOIS privacy is free. I find them expensive for hosting but I have all my domains here. Customer support is great and they keep improving their control panel.

Cheers

Go Daddy is my choice & hostgator yoour all set

One thing about Godaddy's privacy. I do sometimes purchase domains through their auction so for the first year use Godaddy for domain registration. I also used to use their privacy service until I found that when I sent emails to myself to test the privacy service's admin email redirection not one of them every came through.

And no matter how many times I tried to ask their support team I never got it solved... I didn't ever get a reasonable answer at all.

Cheers

In the UK I use easily.co.uk

I've been with them 8 years now and never had any problems. They're pretty responsive given the low cost

I am using bluehost for a year and have no problems with it + I love support, very fast, and helpfull in any kind of trouble

Namecheap hands down! Use the coupons to get a domain and free Whois protection at about 8$. At present the code is NCSPRING. GoDaddy is cheap, but considering a long term investment, namecheap pays off very well..

I like Namecheap. They are fast and allow allot of options when you order through them. right now they are even giving away a free year of whois gaurd to protect your privacy and a free ssl certificate good for 1 year.

Hope this helps

Godaddy is rocking dude!

I use name(.com) and it is great. Private registration is included in the price. Had no problem with them so far.

its as april already, so the NCspring cuopont ain`t working anymore. Try "aprilfun" (for NameCheap)

I hold a lot of domains at godaddy and moniker and use them often. No problems with either registrar. If you register with godaddy using coupon code 499domain you will be able to register a domain at $4.99.

-Revolves

I have bought 4-5 domains from name.com. Try it.

You want to buy domains from GoDaddy for $7.49 with no coupon?
Buy from a GoDaddy's reseller: 770domains.com

Namecheap, since its cheaper with the whois privacy. Just make sure to search for the current month's coupon code so you can get an additional discount.

April's coupon code is APRILFUN, gives you an $0.88 discount (total price would be $8.81 for domain with free whois privacy for 1 year). Not really much, but if you're registering a lot of domains it makes a difference.

Normally I registered my domains in powerhoster. Powerhoster is the cheapest register an .com only $7.49

Namecheaps.com
idotz.net
godaddy.com
hostgator.com is also good one

Hi,

To all those using Godaddy. They are fine until someone accuses you of spam and they then take possession of your domain. It hasn't happened to me but I've heard the stories enough to be very wary. If you use them make sure you read the terms of service very carefully.

I used to use them but now use Netfirms. One other thing with Godaddy is their privacy service. You should receive redirected emails through it. I used it when I used to use Godaddy but I never got any emails through for tech or admin contacts and my emails to them went un-answered. Not a good experience overall.

I use Netfirms.com now For $9.95 you get a domain and free Whois privacy. You'd pay about $18 for that with Godaddy.

Cheers
Max

I recommend using NameCheap just because their system is really user friendly and not cluttered with junk like GoDaddy has when you try to register a domain and they continually upsell all their other products. Namecheap is simple and straight forward.

The coupon for NameCheap this month is APRILFUN. Type that in when buying a domain and you'll save 9%

Also a great deal for hosting, click through the link here and it'll get you 50% off. It's the hosting company I suggest to all my clients, fantastic support and full access unlimited, with cpanel and a website builder free.

GoDaddy is a help, which you should never use. I am speaking about personal experiences as well as things that I have been distinguished, yes, they offer a beneficial service.

I prefer Namecheap coz of its simplicity. google for their coupon b4 purchase ur domain.

I use google to register my domain names. They use godaddy's api, but the rest is done through google (including google checkout) and it's $9.95 a year.
